A statement from police on Thursday, March 16 said : “The 27-year-old man arrested earlier today on suspicion of assault and criminal damage has been released pending a disposal decision.”

The Irish model had voluntarily attended the Merseyside police station that day to assist police with their enquiries.

In a statement earlier that day, the force said: "Following a report of an assault at an address in Rainhill, a man has been arrested.

"A 27-year-old man from Liverpool city centre has been arrested on suspicion of assault and criminal damage after voluntarily attending a police station on Merseyside. He remains in police custody for questioning."

A rep for Jeremy told Mirror Online: “Jeremy denies any wrongdoing, however he is fully cooperating with the police in their investigations."

A source said: “Steph is really shaken after picking up the phone and calling police."

Stephanie has been focusing on her newborn baby Caben-Albi since the drama of the last couple of weeks, and last night she revealed how much he's grown since his birth in January.

The little lad was pictured fast asleep in his mum's arms as she videoed him for her Snapchat followers, captioning the footage "my angel" with a heart emoji.

Wrapped up in a patterned baby-gro and with a rug swirled around both of their legs, the youngster snoozed as his proud mama showed him off.

The incident is alleged to have happened on Thursday March 9 and was reported to police on Sunday March 12.

Jeremy and Stephanie met when they both appeared in the same series of Celebrity Big Brother in January 2016; despite Stephanie dating model Sam Reece on the outside, their romance blossomed on camera and when the show ended they began a relationship.

But it wasn't the smoothest of romances, with several public break ups and reconciliations, and the couple taking swipes at each other on social media and in interviews.

In May 2016, their relationship ended for good, then Stephanie announced she was pregnant with Jeremy's child.

He initially questioned the paternity and asked for a DNA test following the baby's birth, although Steph insisted throughout he was the dad.

Following Caben-Albi's birth in January, Jeremy appeared on This Morning for a live DNA test which confirmed he was indeed the child's father.

He confirmed the news on Twitter, telling fans: "I'll love this monkey with every bit of me."
